Please can I put in a good word for Purley Hosting?  Neil works hard to
provide a professional yet personal service.  He's friendly, honest and
approachable and he understands RiscOS.  He bends structures to
accomodate individual requirements and works long hours to sort out the
inevitable problems that crop up from time to time.

And yes, things occasionally go wrong.  And he occasionally has a
weekend off, no doubt crossing his fingers while he's away.  Bigger
companies can afford to employ people 24 hours a day, but do they
really provide a better service in practice?  In my experience they
usually don't and they're usually very difficult to communicate with
when things do go wrong.

I get the feeling that some of the criticism of Purley Hosting comes
from people who have never tried to run a small business themselves. 
Take it from me - it's not easy.  Maybe we should be saying thank-you
to Neil for providing such an excellent alternative to those big,
impersonal companies, and be a little more understanding when he has to
sort out the problems.

Chris Bell.
